Googlified

Google is experimenting a new way to display OneBox results - placing them in the right hand side of the AdWords section. No, Google won’t remove the ads entirely - unless they want to go out of business - the ads will still be there, only that the OneBox results will be placed under the ads when the ads are present.

For instance, no ads return for “George Bush”, so the OneBox results on placed high on the page, but when searching for keywords like “Christmas”, AdWords ads related to the query will placed before the OneBox results (News, Images, and Books).

Google has been testing something similar with SearchMash for about a year.

You can try out this experiment by copy & pasting this link into the Google homepage’s address bar, hit Enter and refresh the page (you will probably need to clear your cookies before hitting Enter though).
